Start point: near Swim Bald
End point: Brown Fork Gap Shelter
miles hiked: 11mi

Made it up Swim Bald in the morning fog then stopped and made breakfast at Sassafras Gap Shelter. Its nice to eat at the shelters because they usually have a little bench and spot to cook on so you are not sitting on the ground. Ran into Moxie there as she was packing up. It was overcast most of the afternoon. My knee is feeling better, those trekking poles are really helping out.
